we'll start with:
with shiv's tune it wouldn't hold boost after a while. it would oscillate from high to low on WOT. i was bad.. i still tracked it without fixing it
then it was ALWAYS overheating on track after like 2 laps... which makes it really hard to set some times! means i have a 3 lap window. sigh....
then there were the multiple wheel bearing seizes.. the cracked wheels, the cracked rotors... and now the rear diff makes some noises it really shouldn't.... coupled with when on track, sometimes it won't shift into the appropriate gear...
oh! and for a while abs stopped working.. but now it works again fine (i didn't even attempt to do anything to it)...

but in a way.. i guess it's expected to have issues (approx. 50K track miles...).. i just don't know where to start and right now i just want to drive when i get back ... but yeah...

i should clarify... shiv's tune worked well for about a year...
then one day on my way to laguna, i was running late *big surprise * and while i was heading down 101 with WOT, all of a sudden i felt the car start jerking...
i looked over at the boost gauge and saw it oscillating back and forth and was like.. oh... that's not good. oh well. i'm late...
so i proceeded to mash on the car and drove it all day at laguna....
that was about a year and a half ago...
hence, i was very happy to get rid of my ecu and start over with a stock one. but then i left. haha...
